As Deci stepped out into the corridor, she could see her parents having a discussion, the sort that had led to them seperating in the first place. But it was beyond them that was interesting. At the nurses station stood the young man that was the only person that knew about her piggybank.
* * * * *
" Tom!" Beth scolded in a harsh manner. "You can't threaten her like that!"
" I don't knuw anytin. I wuz condakded by uh man thad theddened to expoz whut I am if I didn'd find sum pidures from sum boad drip. Can I ad leasd have sum ize?" The thief said, her hands clasped over her face through the pain.

Leaving her parents to actually have a discussion knowing that this will be about her Grandmother, that being the reason behind everything that happened. Instead she focuses on the person...the boy that has visited her place. "Trent..what are you doing here?" She asks questioningly but not accusingly as she just put together what was missing and now notices who is here. There is too much to make it coincidence but waits to see what he says.
She does however pull him away from her father and mother lest to give them some privacy as well as if he is at all responsible not wanting to get them involved...just yet.

"Sure, we can get you some ice." Tom smiles as he hits the bandadio. "hey, let me know when you're ready to bring me a pick up. We have a co-operative one, for once."

Sierra looks at Sio then at Kristian. 'hey K-man . . this is Sio. she arrived with some men that went with Dylin to do some head person talking. the kid's gone and we got strange vehicles as 'official team vehicles'. i wonder who gets to drive them?'
Si studies Sio now and tries to synch up with her powers to get a 'feel' for them. 'i guess my call sign should be CC for Copy Cat. i copy powers. you?' *she gives Kristian a one arm hug and waits, then realizes 'oh yeah . . were you hungry or thirsty or something? are you staying here or getting dropped off someplace else?'

Siobhan offers Kristian a polite smile, not trying to be unfriendly in any way, simply uncertain around new people. At Sierra's question, she offers a puzzled look at first, then nods, apparently understanding.
"Something they call 'sonic speed' apparently... I run fast." she pauses to sigh, almost dramatically. "I was going to take up Olympic sprinting, but decided it might be considered cheating." the blonde woman then adds, offering Sierra wink. "I guess part of it is being able to manipulate molecular vibrations... I can shake things apart, for example, or cause a sort of concussion wave at something."

'ahh . . a speedster like Jason. at least you seem to be nicer than he was. oh man, i'm blabbing. sorry. Dylin said a new team member. is that you? if it is, i suppose . . '
*she looks at Kristian 'she's feeling odd in the arm. i'm not sure why. maybe you should take a look?' *rubs her arm briefly and then shakes her head* 'right . . where was i? . . oh yeah . . tour if you're staying . . . '

Siobhan offers a quick nod, "Yes I-..." but breaks off as Sierra speaks up about her arm to Kristian. A blink, looking down at her arm, then to Sierra. "Ahh.. how did you know?"

Si is distracted as she looks back at Sio. 'huh? . . oh . . i kinda synched up with you briefly so i can ID your wave if we're seperated. everyone has a different wavelength. kinda like a radio or the radiowaves . . its hard to explain. i barely understand it myself . . . and i'm supposed to know everything i can do . . . '
*she gives a wry snort of laughter and rolls the eyes. 'yeah. i knew i was a freak . . imagine my surprise when i realized there were others similar to me, even if i didn't know it. try coming from a tight community of about 40 . . cut down to about 10 . . and having a bad reaction to somehting. that was me. i actually shed my skin. tlak about embarassing . . . '

A little nod from Siobhan at the first part. "I sorta understand.. I mean not completely, but.. the way you describe it makes sense. Everyone's brain wave pattern is probably different after all, right?" the blonde starts, then tilts her head a bit as Sierra goes on; although not really understanding the reference, talk of shedding skin makes her feel a little green around the gills, as the saying goes. "Uh.. s-shed your skin? Like a....er... snake...?"

Si has the decency to get pink and nod.
'yeah . . uhh . . ' *tugs the neck of hte top down to reveal scales starting just about the neckline* 'it's odd looking . . but they're strong too . Bubba could chew on me and not hurt me. Siberian tiger. don't ask. no one would believe me. but that's me . . . '

Siobhan eyes the scales, but makes sure not to stare. "I knew someone with ink like scales on his chest and arms.. very weird..." she murmurs, then blushes a little as well and looks up quickly. "What... is it like? Do you have .. well, a normal sense of touch?" the blonde asks, then blushes further. "I don't mean to pry, at all... I'm getting.. bombarded with all sorts of new things, and I can't help but wonder."

Trent looked at Deci guiltily once they were in private. " I'm really sorry. I didn't want to tell them where the money came from, but they threatened to blow up my mom's place. I knew you'd show up here if I hung around."
* * * * *
Kristian came over by Siobhan and Sierra, placing a hand on Siobhan's arm," Hold still, fixed in no time." Siobhan could feel a warmth coming from Kristian's hand as the pain was subsiding. " There, should be good as new." He smirked as he said with a slight jamacain accent
Behind them, a smaller hispanic man came in. " Si, Kristian, Tom's got trouble over where Beth works. " Avi said. " Uh, bring your friend if you want. Mac said someone new was coming ." He headed for the door as he keyed his Band-adio " Out the door now Tom."
* * * *
" I'll get the ice." Beth offered and headed for the kitchette.
The thief looked at Tom," Ar youu gunna durn me inn?"

Tom arches an eyebrow. "Is there a really good reason I shouldn't? I mean, you did try to steal, and then hurt me."

Deci finds herself almost once again to be defeated by all that is evil in this city. "Trent? Why did you not call the police....no wait because they threatened to blow up your house. OK we should probably do this legally Trent and get the help you and your mother need" Deci pauses looking at her mother and father for a moment, and even for a fraction of a second realizes that she is happy at them being together and even allows herself to dream for a moment or two. But that is quickly shaken when she remembers why she is there.
"Trent, stay here and give me a moment or two. I may have an idea or two but first I have to go talk to my parents. If this works it may help you and your mom a bunch and the rest of those that need it." With that she heads to her parents still happy at the though and waits to be free to talk to them.

Siobhan winces slightly as Kristian lays his hand on her arm, but within moments a look of relief washes over he face. "Oh wow... I hadn't realized it was hurting that much." she murmurs, as she turns her arm from side to side a few times, examining it. "There were a few small hairline fractures... I was trying to ignore them." she adds in, before looking up to Kristian. "Thank you!"
When the Hispanic man enters, Siobhan offers him a nod, then adds "Oh, the new one would be me..." but trails off as he gives what she guesses is some sort status report. Looking to Sierra, she gives a slight questioning tilt of her head. "Err.. who is Tom? Some sort of invisible guy?"
